Abstract:Previous studies on rice (Oryza sativa L.) have shown that different components of the photosynthetic apparatus are not uniformly synthesized or degraded during senescence. However, most of these senescence-related studies focused on leaf lamina, while few have addressed functional aspects on chloroplasts or leaf physiology. Here, we investigated the photosynthetic properties of the mid-vein and leaf lamina in a super high-yield hybrid rice (LYP9) during senescence. We found that assimilation and transpiration… Show more
